Abstract

The present invention provides a synchronous rectification control circuit, a method and a flyback switching circuit. A drive circuit outputs a drive signal to control the turn-on and turn-off of a synchronous rectification transistor; a threshold comparison circuit controls the drive circuit to output a pull-up drive signal to turn on the synchronous rectification transistor when a drain-source voltage is lower than a preset low threshold voltage and controls the drive circuit to output a pull-down drive signal to turn off the synchronous rectification transistor when the drain-source voltage is higher than or equal to a preset high threshold voltage; a voltage regulation control circuit controls the drive circuit to output a drive signal for pulling up a voltage of the drive signal to a preset pull-up voltage high value when the drain-source voltage is lower than a preset voltage regulation reference value.
